I think I'm out thanks to the update... even getting all my floors to level 6 has been way too much of a grind now. I'm also a little miffed that these cost increases weren't in the change log. The change log is there to, y'know, log changes. Not the first time it's happened to a game I've played, but it continues to annoy me when developers hide the removal of features or cost increases when they do app updates.
Is it just me or does it seem like you suddenly get a flood of level 9 dream jobs for a floor as soon as you have 3 level 9's there. Normally I would be ecstatic and gladly collect all of those chips, however I am trying the "costume everyone" strategy and I am putting all of my level 9 dream jobs in costumes that cost 25 bux. So it doesn't make sense to switch 9's for 9's any more. It's really annoying, I have some floors that don't have any 9's and i am turning away 9 after 9 for my floors that are fully staffed.
So how many of you are putting your floors in a particular order?? I've noticed a lot of my friends do what I do, put suite floors all at the bottom of the tower. I like to put my suites first so I can manage them right away. Unfortunately, the elevator guests RARELY land on the first few floors so I find myself constantly spending bux to book the suites. Next, I keep my casinos grouped together in the middle of the tower. All the retail, food, etc floors are at the top. It's interesting how bouts of OCD come about when micro-managing a game like this. I can't imagine my floors in any other order, even though floor order is insignificant in the grand scheme of things.
I know it's silly, but I order my floors the way a real casino/hotel would be arranged. Definitely the casino on the lower floors and the suites at the top.
For me it's the Ice Bar. I have 3 level 9 Dream Jobbers there. I have no more than 1 on any other floor. Yet, I've gotten about 10 more Dream Jobbers for the Ice Bar since filling it up. Most of them level 9. It's ridiculous.
Double your chips I noticed a glitch where when you watch a video and then tap the ad at the end like you want to get the app, then press cancel when the pop up shows, you get paid double. This worked in 1.0 to get 2 chips per video, and I now see it works in 1.1 to get 4 chips per video. I'm sure this will be corrected in the future, but I will use this while it's available.
Yeah, I found that a couple days ago too, and put the glitch up in the strategy section on the wiki. When I saw the double-chip glitch still worked in 1.1, I was really relieved. When I saw it got 4 chips, it made . With the increased ad frequency at 4 chips per ad it's been flowing a lot more bux, so the price increases haven't bothered me so much. Some ads are just videos, and a few link to a different download page and don't get the extras, but most work.
Is it happening to anyone else in 1.1 that when you click on the gift box to accept a tip, the box just disappears without telling you who tipped you or giving you a chip? Are people actually visiting my tower or are they just freaky phantom boxes?
I too am getting the bug where you don't always get a chip or see who has visited when clicking on a parcel and I am worried that it's people visiting who aren't on my friends list already. Tower organisation -- casino floors on the bottom to make it easier for visitors obviously.
I'm not really noticing any increases in winning, just a minor increase in chips. If others are winning more it seems like luck is a factor, either good luck for them or bad luck for me.
I can't get this to work. I am still using 1.0. I click on the ad when it is done it takes me to a download page, there is a cancel box in the top corner that I hit and that gave me 1 chip, I've also hit the download button then cancel but still only 1 chip, what am I doing wrong?
Yeah I can't get it to work either. Every time I only get a single chip, never double. Not sure why it works for some people.
TRB4, I appreciate your correction on this. Sometimes I read messages too fast & miss a critical word, in this case:"update." For those, like you, who arrange the casinos on the bottom (or at least the bi-weekly game), I, for one, really find it helpful. Just tried that but it didn't work for me. Kinda matches my luck in gambling! YES!! Big problem for me. It never happened in v. 1 but it happens every time I get gifts in this update. It occurs with the last gift I get (or a single gift if that's all I get at the time) so I never know if it's a "phantom" box or if I'm overlooking someone's kindness for that's what bothers me the most. Hopefully NB will fix this without raising the price of updates, floors, costumes, etc. p.s.: Has anyone else noticed just how many gambling games are in the ads?
Anyone else find the hotel floors frustrating? I hate playing the elevator game, so my hotel floors are almost always empty. I wish I could delete them, they don't really serve any purpose.
Based on the devices listed for people it doesn't work for, I'm guessing it might be a glitch that's iPad specific. With 1.1, I've been getting 4 coins for 90% of the ads.
I just had an idea that someone who plays on 2 devices may be able to use. Is it possible to play on ver. 1.1 on one device to gain chips and bux quicker then play the same game on a different device running ver. 1.0 and use the bux you earned to purchase floor upgrades at the cheaper prices? If that is possible, it seems like it would be the best of both worlds.
